Hi There!

Welcome

I'm Mikhaela.

I quit sugar four years ago when I was pregnant with my first son. It was making me fat, sick, lethargic... miserable. It was hard, but I got there. The reward has been incredible. For me and my family.

This is a personal blog. A place that I share #refinedsugarfree recipes and other family favourites.

Thanks for stopping by.

Feb 13 LÓrange Cake

First to make the orange: Put 1 cup white sugar, the seeds of 1 vanilla pod and 1/2
cup of water in a saucepan, stir over medium heat until dissolved. Then
add thin orange slices – Use 2 oranges, disposing of the ends. Cook
over a gentle heat for about 10-15 minutes until orange is softened (this
is why very thin slices are best). Once, done, remove from heat.

Line the cake tin and add
the orange slices carefully so they are overlapping nicely. Juice goes in
too.

In a mixer, beat 2
eggs, 1/2 cup of castor sugar and 1/2 tsp vanilla for about 10 minutes
until the mix is pale and tripled in size..
